When you arive don't talk to individual drivers who are waiting in front of the airport.
Talk only to the person (sometimes a lady) who is in charge to assign the taxis.
Ask him / her for a collectivo to Havana.
When he / she finds more persons willing to go with a collectivo to Havana you pay only your part of the total price.
I went several times with a taxi to Havana but there are no scams along the way.
Sometimes the driver wanted to smoke cigarette, but then I stayed in the car.

Posts: 5How to get taxi from Varadero airport to Havana center
Hi,
Does anyone know how I can get a cheap taxi from Varadero airport to Havana center.
I arrive at 7 pm and need to get to my casa.
Buses are not going no more so I need to take a taxi.
Any suggestions?

The beauty of it is that you can book online and have confidence that your car is reserved (I can vouch for it since I've done it more than 8-9 times myself). I can't imagine showing up and walking into a rental agency and being at their mercy in terms of pricing and what's available. This is Cuba after all! They almost always take a security deposit from you which they return upon the end of your rental. They'll walk around the car and make sure no damage has been done. I've never had the slightest issue.

I think the upside of renting thru your link might be the rental price quoted is in USD, correct me in case I'm wrong.

I always book my cars through the Cuba Travel Network via Cuba Junky:

I get to the airport, grab my luggage, exchange my money outside and then walk over to the rental office (literally a 30 second walk from outside the airport). All of the car "companies" have an office there, Transtur, Havana Auto, Rex, etc.

BTW, would you mind sharing how you go about renting cars, do you rent once you arrive or do it before getting to Cuba? Lately I'm trying to do it thru an outfit out of SoFla but so far they tell me I have to wait since I'm going next January and they don't know prices!
I've had luck a couple times at the airport but the last time I struck out.
